Which Tweezer?
Thin Tip: Good for grasping
small, fine hairs, and plucking ingrown hair.
Slanted Tip: Gives maximum control.
Square Tip: Best used for removing
coarse hairs or several hairs at a time.
- Tweeze immediately after showering or apply a hot washcloth
to loosen hair follicles.
- Hold a pencil vertically along the side of the nose. Eyebrow
should start at outside edge if pencil.
Hint: Leaving a bit more space will widen close-set eyes.
- Hold pencil to outside of eye. This is where the eyebrow should
end.
- Smooth brows with a little moisturizer to help hairs slide out.
- Brush brows up to find a natural arch.
- Draw in the desired shape beforehand with a soft eye shadow
pencil.
Hint: Don't use an eyeliner pencil. It will cause you to pluck
too much.
- Tweeze under the brow first, plucking in the direction of the
growth. Hint: If your plucking becomes too painful, apply a little
anbesol (yes, that pain reliever for teeth also numbs the brows)
- Using an eyelash comb, comb brows upwards and trim any hairs
that extend beyond the natural top or brow bone.
- After tweezing, soothe the area with cool, wet tea bags.
